Those events were tragic, but it's part of the reason why Hadrian's Wall took Juliette and reconditioned her into Eve. Her penance was as a soldier against encroaching dark forces. That penance will continue on as she supports team Grimm in it's struggle. What else can she do. Her intent was purpose over happiness and the foundation of that is the guilt she feels. The case is closed, I imagine, with the government likely shaping the narrative to obfuscate the Wesen element. And most of those Verratt are dead anyway. And how would her being in jail help anyone? She's got much more work to do on the outside.
If the only wesen punishment is murder and there is no accountable to anyone then I think the viewer should expect that nothing will improve for the future.
The Grimm is the Grimm and they will always serve that purpose. Mainly because there will always be villains and a justice system unequipped to deal with them. Where the change comes, is in Nick's interpretation of that function. His inclusiveness and outreach to Portland's Wesen community have made him a hero to them instead of the boogeyman of the past. So many of the crimes he investigated were Wesen on Wesen, where the victims had little recourse. Nick is, in a sense, part of the Wesen justice system. It may not be particularly structured, (though in twenty years, who can say), but Nick has been taking on more and more of the role of sheriff. What he's built with his family and team Grimm is a foundation that the Wesen community can lean on. And it's something that can live on beyond him. Change comes slowly, and if you think about it, the first six seasons were just chapter one. An origin of a new way of doing things. It'll only grow across those twenty years and beyond.
Without a council or some kind of wesen wide information system real lasting improvement would not happen. It would be great if one the kids creates a wesen/grimm newsletter/social media.
Women characters do not have to be having sex with the lead to be important to the story.
